I have always enjoyed Geoff's blog as a no nonsense - humble type of guy. Lately he attitude seems to be moving away from that. I am not sure if it is just a phase or having the success he has had or moving to CO and trying to eek a living off of ultra-running. Or he is justed pissed off about not getting into Hardrock? We will see where he goes from here.

Thornley's response is awesome. Those guys are coming across like a bunch of nancy-ass whiners. They could run HAM radio and do the trail building days at Hardrock this year and have 4 lottery tickets next year. That seems unlikely

I love him. Definitely my favorite blog. I don't always agree with all of his opinions (I agree with him on this one, though), but he starts some good conversations that involve everyone from the elites to the back of the packers. Plus he is just damn funny.

No need to feel guilty for that! You're just following the rules as set up by the RD... totally fine in my book.

+1 I managed to get a friend down there last year based on that rule. No one had to ask a RD to break his own rules for him to go down there. Of course I think Umstead may be different with caps on runners based on what is an easy number to manage, versus a hard cap set by park/forest/land service management.
